Mark,

Great job!

I spent 4 years working on these things back in the 70's and except for the squadron markings (I was in VT-27 in Corpus Christi) your aircraft is right on the money!

I'm just getting back into RC after a 20 year lay off. Just about to put an ARF trainer in the air, after that, the aircraft progression will be a Goldberg Tiger 60 for a first low wing trainer, a T-34 and hopefully the T-28 if the money holds out!

Can you tell I'm partial to Navy aircraft?

Regards,

Mark

Very nice t-28, I have one with almost the same paint job.
Can you tell me where I can get a dummy engine for the byron t-28.
I had a 7 cylinder in the plane but decided to go with a gas engine instead.

Thanks

Byron has one that fits this plane. If you want it more scale check with Frank Tiano at FTE.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I got my dummy radial from Frank Tiano. Takes a litle cutting to make everything fit right becasue of my engine configuration. but, the radial measurement is perfect for the cowl.

Thanks for the nice words, Fred. Long time no speak. Hope all is well. I am looking to this Friday for the maiden. Weather is the only factor. So far, so good.
